Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide

This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

I AM NEW USER TO LINUX RH ENT 5. I HAVE DELL i3 LAPTOP WITH 64BIT PROCESSOR. I HAVE INSTALLED RH ENT 5 FREE EDITION, WHICH IS WORKING FINE IN CLI MODE ,HOWEVER, DOES NOT WORK IN GUI MODE (init 5) ....SHOWS ERROR IN GRAPHICS INTERFACE....ANY ONE CAN HELP ME OUT TO SOLVE D PROBLEM????

There is no such thing as "RH ENT 5 FREE EDITION" Redhat's soct model does not contain anything resembling this at all. Assuming you mean you just haven't registered with RHN, then have you installed Xwindows or not? What is this error? Is it a secret? You have provided so little information you can't expect us to be able to directly help you, and you can clearly provide a lot more. You have eluded to error messages which you clearly have provided, you have not.

Also I think you need to get a new keyboard, yours appears to be broken.
